WINNSBORO, S. C. MAT UZIDAY, FI.nt1rTAn Y 8, 1870. R. MJCAN )A VIN, EITOx. JNO. 8. RIY.OLD,. ASSOCIATlc EICITot. TIlE D1PLOMATIC event inI Washing ton Monday was the ollicial lresenta tion of the new Spanish Ninister, Senor )on Felipo Mendez de Vigo. Jun- MAcaEY ltas gone to Wash ingtou to testify before the Teller Committee, in answer to E. W. 3i. Mackey, Campbell and Wallace. A WAsHING-r()N (espatch gives an explanation of Setator Gordon's blank telegrams similar to that pub lished a few days ago inu TiE iNi:ws AND IIEHAI). If Senator Gordon is not afraid of his cipher despatches he heed not fear these blanks. SENATOR BAYARD, ill debate on Wednesday, said that Edinunds, by his resolutions, is the first public man that has cast doubt on the validit v of the constitutional amrenments. Dur ing the debate it was aSsert(l, with out denial, that Vermont has never ratified the amieniments, thong"h the Southern States have. AmOm; Tilr' distinguished1 dead of the past week are ltichard 11. Dana, of Matssachusetts, the poet and essay ist; Col. Sir P'ercy Wyndhamn, of hngland, who cominanded a brigade of Federal cavalry duiring the late watr and was captutrel at Clintelly ; and Gen. George Cadwalader, of Phila delphia, who was also a Federal coin nander. THE JNiri States Senate by a vote of thirty-three to twenty-four confirmed the New York appoint nents over which Conkling and thie Administration have had such a squabble. An analysis of the vote and ''pairs" shows talnt t.Wenty-sev'i Democrats and thirteen Ileptmblicans favored eonttirmIlation, and twenty three Rlepublicans and seven Demo crats were opposed to it. One Inde pendent (Davis, of Illinois) voted against confirmation, four I)emnocrats who were present refrained 11romn voting, and one Deimocrat was absent without a ''pair. 'Te Democrats who voted against the nominations claimed that the Democracy should .not incur responsibility by voting to confirm. And Senator Kerniana, of New York, decled1 to vote at all because he regarded both the collector discharged and the One appointed as objectionable. Contkling has been more imperious and puttled up of late than ever, and lie badly needed a good settin)g dowvn. That lie has receivedI it cannot, be gainsaiud, Iis einmies at home will now pluck up courmage. The .Ycws and C'our'ier well says that, the Admnistratioii Senators should show their' gratitudeo to the iDemo crats by irefusiing to confirm Sami Lee and Webster, notorious .liaduials anmd deadbeats, as postmasters respectively of Sunmter anid Oirangebuarg. 1d Southern Pensions. Col. D. Wyatt Aiken has written a letter to the .eces arnd Courier in reference to the pension bill recentl1y passed. It is only3 for U nion soldiers. The Mexican andI Semiinole veterans ar*e still unplrovided for, and Colonel 1m Aiken thinks their disappointment wi-l be lasting. Already three huni dredl thousand names are on [lie peni sioni list, and the new bill will entail an additionaml ontlay of fr'oui thirt y to a hiundr'ed million dollars. Under the act of last Mairch, gr'antinmg pen sions to veterans of 1812 aid their Widows, nqt less thnam twenty-four thousand claims have beein filed, a miost astoundinig number. At, this rate the veterans of' Florida and Mexico would number several huin dr'ed thousand, 1t is the fear of this, and the natural disInclination to give money to the South, fliat will cause the defeat of any flmrthier pension bills. From this it would appear that Southerni veteranis haid betterm ang their harps upon the willows at once' The Phosphate Question. The suggestion offered by Majot 'Woodwar'd to have a conferencee ot the farmers of the count.v on the fertilizer question,.is by 110 meanis a bad one; but It shouldi be a mass meeting, and not one of D)emnocratlc clubs. Thce Democracy is a p)urely polItical organization, and It canniot afford to outer Into any side issues, Bunt the success of farmIing is a mat ter of vital Importance to the people at -largo, and thme farmers enn ivolI afford to spend a day in consulting for' their interest.
